With Supresta’s focused vision and mission, the efforts of our research and development division are of the utmost importance. The group cooperates with our sales force, offering unique technical market support to customers, and at the urging of our advocacy department, anticipates new product and application demands resulting from trends in legislation and analyzes potential new product life cycles up front.

Supresta's research and development group also focuses on process technology research, making significant contributions to cost reductions in our manufacturing processes. The work of our research and development group is absolutely essential to our business.

Our main laboratory is located in Ardsley, New York USA, and the European location operates in Bitterfeld, Germany. Supresta’s research and development division is staffed by some the world’s leading research and development scientists, including several PhD level scientists. Our phosphorus chemists are ahead of the rest, registering hundreds of patents in the last quarter century.

As fire performance testing is critical to product development, Supresta has capabilities for both small and large scale testing.

Our research and development program works toward Operational Excellence in sustainable phosphorus based flame retardants in all of our key market segments.
